My Sister

[babygurl17]

okay, my sister, Angel, is only 15 and she's been dating this guy for like 1mth. She lost her virginity to him last week. She's had more serious boyfriends that him, and never done nething with them besides make out. i dont want her to get pregnant~!!! i told her to get back on her birth control, and i went to the pharmacy the other day and bought her a box of condoms. but can i do anything else? i mean, i cant make her get back on the pill... should i take her to get on the shot? or the patch? i dont want her to wind up pregnant by this guy, he's leaving for the army in 2mths, for 4 years. so she'd be here raising this baby by herself, she says she doesnt want kids right now, but then she says well maybe it wouldnt be so bad. i dont know what to do~!!!!



Any Advice? thanks Ashley

I think that you've really done all you can. By buying her condoms and trying to get her back on the pill, you've filled your role as big sister without overstepping it.



But if you drag her off to get the shot or the patch or something, I think she'll be angry at you for it. You've helped and told her what she needs to hear, but now it's HER life and it's ultimately in HER hands.



Hang in there.

I agree wtih Hannah. You've done pretty much all you can do. Anything else is left completely up to her. Just have a talk with her and let her know how hard it is to raise a baby alone. Maybe she'll listen.

I think buying her condoms and birth control pills was more like encouraging her behavior rather than remedying it. That way she thinks it's okay to just have sex with any boyfriend no matter how little they've gotten to know each other. I don't know what your standards are on sex, but I think having sex after a month isn't the best thing, especially at her age.

Regardless of whether you have contraception provided, the decision is hers. If you want to stpo her from getting preganant, you need to sit her down and talk to her forcefully about it.

i dont think u can do much besides getting her condoms and talking about it, fortunately i think he's leaving soon so just make sure she uses protection during those couple months that he is still here, but in the end it's her decision if she's old enough to have sex she'd have to deal with the consequences if she does end up pregnant

Ashley,

It's great of you to care so much for your sister, but unfortunatly you have done everything you can do. Buying her the condoms was a really great move. Now all you can do is pray that she comes to her senses and realizes what she's doing. IF she was to get pregnant, that would be horrible but she's got to live with the consequences. You are not responsible for her actions.



If this guy is 18, then you could always tell the authorities and have him arrested for having underage sex. That is pretty drastic, but it's an option.



I hope everything turns out well for you
